30 Seconds to love Portugal

And is over. The 30 Seconds to Mars tour in Europe ended in Lisbon (Coliseu dos Recreios) with a great performance. Jared Leto, didn't needed to, but he still decided to use his charisma trying to make everyone in the room to fell in love with the band. Spending 50% of the concert telling how much they love Portugal, and how they fell this is a "special place" since they stepped out of the airplane. The concert started on a nice and simple way, with a white curtain letting only some shades go trough. Some of the most waited songs like "From Yesterday" where just taken out of the way at start, and the concert just went on with a nice energy flow. Somewhere after "Attack" the band decided to disappear from the stage, just so Jared could show up solo on the VIP seat area, flirting with the audience, and singing 3 songs in acoustic version. Finishing this trio with "A Modern Myth" and going back to the main stage to immediately unleash "Hunter" a Björk original. All in all, the pleased expression on all my friends face, and the artists the performance, just made me to admire "30 Seconds to Mars" in a way close to my favorite bands, it was a concert well worthy of this great paladin presence.
